You want my feedback, huh, BioWare? It will be a cold day in hell when I give you feedback. And according to my beliefs, Hell is cold until the Afterlife, so...

...I think it's FANTASTIC! It's nice to have developers keep their fans engaged in the actual game material. However, it would also be nice if we saw other things, such as interviews with the developers and cast as well as and making-of segments for previous games (and, if possible, upcoming ones) as suggested by other posters. I really liked today's sessions where the producers (Mr's Houston, Dallas, and Hudson, I believe?) answered questions from the fans via YouTube and Twitter. There's a lot to be said, but I haven't seen them yet. I also like the fact that the episodes are recorded and can be watched later.

Keep up the good work! :D

I like the deeper looks at the games than just the trailers. Nice stuff.

My only gripe is seeing the SWTOR stuff makes me weep for the lack of KOTOR III instead.

I loved it, and would certainly like to see more. As long as story spoilers for games are kept to a minimum, I think this is a great idea. And I would watch it both for new game info etc. and any other episodes, like interviews with staff, tour of the studio, funny episodes, for news, and so on. I think its a great idea to incorporate other aspects, into the show, other than pure info/news.

Sorry that was a bit longwinded, but basically Great, Yes want More, Thumbs up!, and keep up the good work ;).

Very, very nice. Its a great idea for getting information straight from the source, made even better by the fact that we could ask questions XD I would definitely like to see more!

Seriously though, it was tiring running from site to site looking for all the Live's, videos, and interviews featuring ME3. I think it would be amazing if BioWare Pulse TV got its own website featuring ALL articles, videos, and interviews related to its games, making it a one stop shop for all things BioWare News. With links to the official game pages as well ^^ and stats, reviews, scores, walkthroughs, etc.

I loved it. It's a reliable source of info that's easy to track down. I could get up to speed on things without the strain of trying to find them from different sources.

I think it's a great idea and works well with a community that is as rabid and passionate as any other hardcore fan community. Would like to see regular episodes which keep fans informed about the progress of their favorite games, with commentary from developers on how they feel about the project(s) that they're working on, etc.

An emphasis on honest and down-to-earth assessments/opinions, in place of marketing would really help people better understand the developer's intentions and put a human face on those working on some of the most beloved games in the industry. Regular updates really help those 'core' fans (like me) who devour every little morsel that comes their way and can lessen the burden of the marketing machine, as word of mouth and fanboy hype (when armed with substance) has a positive ripple effect throughout the gaming community.

Can't wait for ME3!

To David "Awesome Button" Silverman i say no no no after the DA 2 don't want to see him again( Mike "Bulls**t" Laidlaw too) so if you use someone with personality the it can be great .

I think it's a great idea. I would like to see some "special" on the developer themselves. This would not only keep fans entertained, it should give those who want to work on videogames an inside look, and maybe even entice some to join you. You could do things like studio tours, etc (as long as it does not keep them from working on ME3). Some of the stuff Ubisoft did with their Employee Number One on youtube was interesting. It would also be great to have some post-mortem of finished games too. Oh, and what @Rollingcabbage said.

It has potential. Keep it relevant, relatively updated and interesting and I think it could be a really cool outlet for BioWare.

The biggest thing is to keep it from being repetitive.

i think it was pretty good how about you also use it to do special competions? like best fan trialer, poster, game cover etc and people win stuff like daO & da2 with all dlc? or me3 sign by casey and his team? or even the chance to design your own charecter to be in for exsample DA3?

It was awesome, without it I don't think we would have got so much info on and look into the games.

You can't make a TV just with news flashes... make some cartoons BioWare. And a cooking show.

BioWare Pulse was really well done!

I thought it was well organized and I love that i can find all news related to upcoming Bioware projects all in one place and that the news is directly coming from the developers.

I also found the Pulse was very personable, and enjoyed listening and asking questions to the developers in the Q&A sessions.

Overall BioWare Pulse is a great addition to the site and hope to see more of it soon! ^_^

BiowareTV is a fantastic idea.

You could easily do regular episodes if you include :

-The Latest News about Mass Effect, SWTOR and Dragon Age
-Q&A with the fans
-Exclusivities
-Studio Tours
-Developer Interviews
-Making of
-Trailers
-Gameplay Previews
-Collector's Edition Unboxing
-Community Creations (fan art, videos, comics, etc)

Bioware Pulse TV is a great idea. I enjoyed all the episodes so far. Another use for it could be having developers provide expert gameplay or walkthrough advice like how to best use Mass Effect 3's new Omniblade or what's the best way to get Shepard safely off Earth. Lot's of potential and possibilities for use of this new outlet.

I think it's a fantastic way to help keep fans engaged during the development process. The often long cycles can often leave the original giddyness of a fan to slowly wither away as they wait...and wait...and wait. So it's nice to see developers taking the time to rekindle interest with little tidbits, videos, interviews, etc.

My suggestions:
  • Adjust the code of the site to allow you to clearly differentiate between videos containing heavy spoiler content and just containing general interviews, development process, and general information. This would allow fans to make their video selection with spoilers for particular series in mind and not have to play the guessing game.
  • Sometimes it feels like, especially in Q&A sessions, that some questions are being answered that have already been answered a dozen times. While it's great to see the patience in developers when answering these again...and again...I'd like to see a greater attempt at answering new and more interesting questions that they haven't really had a chance to address.
  • Perhaps give fans a bit of look into the hands on process of how developers work. Nothing critical, but just being able to see some of the tools and such developers are using, and how everything comes together might be interesting. Close to what we saw in the gameinformer hub with sound design where we could see how they experimented and played with it. But expand it into level designs and other aspects.
  • Let us get to know the artists a bit. We see a lot of the combat developers but seems like we don't get to meet the writers or art designers as much as we should, considering how important it all is. The art has come a LONG way since ME1 and it would be nice to see some videos with the people behind it.
  • Come up with an update schedule and try to keep up with it. Even if it's only the 1st of every month. I think fans will be pleased and more interested if they can count on videos being up every so often, rather than having to try and check for sporadic and unannounced updates.
